I like your shoe lace idea or just take the shoe lace and run the zip tie through the exterior tubing of the lace. That way there secured very well and won't scratch anything. :cheers:

I'll likely use the black zip ties since my roll bar is black. Will they slide under the plastic trim on the front of the roll bar so as to nearly be invisible???
|
I am not sure, I have never tried that. But they probably would. :D

For the center plexiglass, I used a small piece of the fuzzy side of velcro, and wedged it where the small brackets hold the windscreen to roll bars.
It stopped all rattling and I've been very happy with it. |
I"ve found the best thing that helps is the rubberized electrical tape. Not the thin "standard" stuff but the thick, stretchy, rubberized stuff. Its black, so it blends in and is quite thick. I put a few pieces on all 3 corners of each rollbar insert, nice and tight and no rattles. As for the center windstop, you can replace the clips for about $2 each at your dealer which makes for a MUCH tighter fit, especially for those of you who have 10 year old cars. If that's not enough, put a small piece of the tape between the piece rollbar mount and where the clip locks to tighten up the fit. Mine are completely silent and I do not worry at all about mine blowing out.

There is (finally) a TSB on the 987's center windstop. For the sides, has anyone tried these? (a site sponsor)

1. If Porsche wanted to make thesethings solid they could have easily...but they didn't. 2. These are likely to turn your windscreens into easily launches. They're know for falling out even with the perforations! 3. $77 for a lexan cut out and a bolt??? |

OK.... did it just now. Drilled two 3/16 holes in the bottom frame of the center windstop and snaked zipties around the rollbar. Also added a smaller ziptie around each outside edge around the rollbar. The ties on the center piece also lean a bit on the plastic frame giving it a tightening effect as well. Now I will not have to worry at over 130mph... ;) . Won't be makin' any Porsche litter on the highway now. Regarding security, unless someone has a knife or snips plus a little "stand there" time, they can't just grab parts and run. You judge the photos. Good to get all the forum ideas... Bob |
^ That's the best way to do it. :cheers:

I've done 135 with the top down and the windstop or screens never come loose on my 118k mile boxster.
I did add alot of plush circles to the contact points/plastic tabs to quiet everything up and that is also making them more snug. |
